My bad. Thought I added you way back! You're added now anyway

So in saying this, we'll properly brainstorm ideas ahead of the next league to keep it fresh and to be honest, I think with 10 teams per group, it's really drawing out the league. Maybe something a bit shorter and therefore fit in possibly a new original league every 2 months/6 weeks?

I think this is a massive factor as people down the leagues are losing a little motivation.

I think the World Cup suggestion a while back was a good one. I was initially thinking that an international tournament would be brilliant anyway, but obviously the range of teams starwise makes it difficult, but that suggestion seems quite plausible.

I'd probably ignore the goalscorers for that though as managing the tournament system would be enough to have on the plate.

Passing around the back to waste time is the single most annoying thing you can do in the game. Building up from the back is different. I haven't seen anyone do it in the league, but reckon I'd rage quit if it did! Hacking down doesn't bother me tbh.

But I'll admit that league interest from me is lacking because I'm doing shít, not because of league format! But its still a good idea to mix the format up

Colemania

To be honest, I'd like to be able to pick a different team almost every game, therefore being able to avoid bad form. Also putting in a rule that you can't pick the same team twice

I wouldn't even be able to pass it around the back as I'd only mess it up and concede!

Hoof it long to good auld Shane. He'll know what to do with it! :pac:

Nothing sweeter than intercepting a pass from someone passing around the back and scoring

Hacking down doesn't bother me either, I've done it and had it done against me. No issue with it as I appreciate a good "tactical" foul

Some lads will blame anything in the case of a defeat. I've lost three games, fair and square. Get back up and play the next one.

Yes, the passing around the back to run the clock down is very frustrating but I haven't encountered anyone who does that in our league (and I definitely don't!)

Definitely open to ideas for the next season and the format it takes. Some good suggestions have been made. It's a pity the interest has waned a little this time but it might pick right back up when the groups finish and we enter the Champions Cup / Shield?

I hope so anyway

Similarly, I have nothing against a "tactical foul" as well really as they are running the risk of a red card.

Interest probably will pick up for the knockouts as well as we'll be out of the group stage which seems like they've been going on forever! :pac: :pac:


As for losing games, I know exactly the reason why I've lost so many games.......



.....manual controls.



Well come on, what did you expect me to say! I like having excuses! :pac:

What about running the league in a champions league type format and seeding the groups depending on the previous league.

Whoever finishes top of the group goes through and whoever finishes second can go into a playoff type system depending on group numbers etc. With the bottom two teams going into the shield.

Maybe each person can only use a team once and the lower seeds get to choose from a higher star rating then the higher seeds from this season. Like for example higher seeds can only choose from 4 star and the lower seeds can choose from 4.5. Something like that

That sounds like a good idea. Would make it very interesting and you would be using a different team in every game so at least you'd never be bored or sick of your team.

Colemania

Lads if ye want, ye can play your final fixtures. It might suit people who are online this week and just want to get them out of the way

I like this idea as well but I think being the same team is better than picking different teams even if I do have a love/hate relationship with Besiktas! It makes it more real feeling. Champions League format is good!

Yeah, while I can definitely see the point of picking different teams, if we're planning on having a shorter season with less games, losing interest with a team shouldn't be an issue anymore.

I'd definitely be in favour of picking one team for the season. I'm after becoming a bit of a Southampton fan now!! :pac: :pac:

Wilberto

Don't mind me, just putting all my final few fixtures in one post for future reference!

Ajax (A)
Schalke (H)
Nice (A)



Okay, I was expecting to list more than three but I'll take that! :pac:

It's on the website that's linked under each announcement of fixtures on Fridays. You can click on your team also to see your results and fixtures

Colemania

Still a lot of games to be played lads. I intend on starting the playoffs and quarter finals next Friday so try and get all games played by then

brianregan09

No problem picking a team every game but I did (intially) enjoy getting used to a new team with Bilbao , I like the idea of havin a limit of how often you can use a new team though

Colemania

Stryker mcqueen - Just in relation to your comment on the match report, you don't need valencia to beat me to qualify. Top 5 qualify for Champions Cup with the 4th and 5th placed team going into a playoff. So 4th place in Group A will play 5th place in Group B and 5th place in Group A will play 4th place in Group B.

Winner of the playoff will play one of the 1st placed teams from either Group in the quarter final.

So in essence, the top 5 in Group A can't change as no team can creep into the top 5 at this stage. Looks like we're both destined for playoffs!
